My StarMax is one of the most pleasurable Mac-clones I've used. Slow, yes, but stable and solid. Mine runs at 160Mhz. Yours is quite a bit faster. There are great Linuxes, like MK Linux, that are good on that era Mac. But, with that kind of relative speed, sell it with a Mac OS on it. What are you asking for it?
